Mark H,
You wrote,[...I understand and sympathize with the ...to refute certain statements of faith...]
You gave three alternatives.
One is to start a new thread stating my belief. I do not feel that that way would be something that I would want to do. For to do so, I would likely want to post the foundation of my faith which is, IMO, not permitted for me to do so here. The opening page of the faith board has links that give examples and converstaions that IMO have the potential for me to think that I would be putting down those of other faiths if I was to post the foundation of my faith. I feel that if I was to do so, then I could be in the area of [...two wrongs do not make a right...] and that is another reason that I request a determination by the administration as to the acceptability or not of the particular statement. I do not want to write others things that they could consider as wanting to confront anyone here, and I feel that your first alternative has the potential for that to happen, even though, I guess, someone could do so without that happening.
So your first altenative I do not feel comfortable with. I would like to work under the administrative board that welcomes members to state what they think could be an improvment to thecommunity and I believe that thecommunity could be improved if I was to make a thread that had my opening statement in several parts, then my body of support to my opening statement and then my closing statements. This means that I need more than 3 posts to do such and I am requesting that I be given an exemption to use more than 3 posts and then it would be like my other threads which, I guess are not really refutations, but appeals.
Lou
